274 can't reach you (ask for a monthly pass)
It's night.
Torbanane has a lively atmosphere that has never been seen before.
This is supposed to be the time when players come back from the maze area and return to the town to relax.
And today, in order to help tomorrow's strategy battle, a total of sixty players gathered in a fairly high-end restaurant and had a good meal.
Although there is still a mustard between the closed beta players and the general players, it is not as strong as before, and the two sides gather in a restaurant to fight tomorrow.
Even Kirito, who has always insisted on walking alone, and Argo, who will not appear in the open, blended into the crowd and condoled with the rest of the beta sealers.
Of course, Luo Zhen was also among them, and he was toasted by the testers one by one.
"I'm so sorry, Luo Zhen."
"I'm sorry."
"Before, I asked you to help us closed beta players bear all the condemnation."
"I'm really sorry."
One by one, the closed beta players apologized to Luo Zhen one after another, in exchange for Luo Zhen's disapproving words.
"If you're really sorry for me, then work hard tomorrow."
Luo Zhen just gave such a sentence, which made everyone laugh out loud.
It is conceivable that in the past month, the hearts of these sealed beta testers must have been extremely tormented, and it was only now that they finally relaxed, which made many people shed tears.
"Those who didn't show up will regret it, right?"
"All of them are so cowardly, they deserve to miss the scene where our sealed beta testers are cleared of their charges."
"Don't say that, it's not easy for them either."
"That's right."
The beta testers are having this conversation one by one.
Luo Zhen could also understand their thoughts.
Just like what Argo said before, even if it is a closed beta player, there are also strong and weak, some broke through to the 10th floor under the leadership of Luo Zhen, and some are still active in the 1st floor, resulting in limited intelligence and knowledge.
Therefore, among the players in the closed beta, there are types like these people who are present and lead everyone at the beginning and thus become top players, but there are also types that are as conscientious as the rest of the players and finally integrate into the average player and can no longer have any advantages.
Although the closed beta players listed in the list that Luo Zhen handed over to Argo are the top players at the beginning, there may be some of these players who don't want to wade into the muddy waters and successfully integrate into the general players, or who are unwilling to come for various reasons.
Either way, they missed today's feast and will regret it in the future, that's for sure.
I believe that after today's incident, the treatment of closed beta players should be a little better, right?
At the very least, in this group of top players, closed beta players will no longer be like rats crossing the street, but will be able to walk down the street with their heads held high.
"The premise is that tomorrow's strategy battle can be successful."
Argo added such a sentence, which made the closed beta players, including Kirito, nod their heads.
However, the Closed Beta players present had a much easier time than the average player.
The reason is simple.
"If Luo Zhen is here, at least the boss of the first layer will be fine, right?"
"Caidie is now level 13, in addition to paralysis skills, there are also blindness skills, it should be enough to deal with the boss of the first layer, right?"
"It's up to you, little one."
"It's up to you."
The closed beta players touted the rainbow butterflies one by one, and even gave them some precious nectar, juice, dew and other props to feed.
"Goo! Woohoo! ”
The rainbow butterfly happily flew in mid-air, flapping its wings and dancing in the sprinkled phosphorus powder.
The beautiful scene won the applause and cheers of the closed beta players, but also made the average player unable to take their eyes off it, and looked at Luo Zhen with some envy and jealousy in his eyes.
Luo Zhen ignored these sights, and while letting the rainbow butterfly play with everyone, he came to the wall, leaned there, and looked at the scene in front of him.
"Tomorrow... Is it? ”
Thinking of tomorrow's strategy battle, Luo Zhen recalled the memories of the closed beta period from his head.
"I remember that the first layer of the Guardian Boss during the closed beta period was..."
Luo Zhen recalled these and began to organize various tactics and countermeasures in his mind.
Until......
"May I stand next to you?"
Such a voice woke up Luo Zhen, who was immersed in thinking, and made Luo Zhen raise his head and look aside.
"Is that you?"
After seeing the comer clearly, Luo Zhen was slightly surprised.
It was Diabel.
The man, who was shouldering the task of commanding with Luo Zhen and was also the initiator of this strategy battle, raised the cup in his hand and smiled at Luo Zhen.
"I'm sorry, I can't help but want to come and talk to you when you are here alone."
With such a sentence as the opening line, Diabel turned his head and looked at the Rainbow Butterflies cheering and clapping around the dance, and his eyes began to flicker.
"Seriously, I admire you."
Diabel said something suddenly.
Luo Zhen didn't reply, but chose to listen to Diabel quietly.
Because, at this moment, Diabel's expression is no longer as fresh and cheerful as during the day, but full of bitterness.
"I always thought that if it were me, I would be able to lead the players well, lead the top players in this town to attack the first layer together, and tell those players hiding in the town that this game can be attacked, we still have hope, please don't give up."
From this point of view, Diabel's aspirations are quite noble.
It's just that......
"I never thought of leading the closed beta players and eliminating the problems between the closed beta players and the general players, but I let the Tooth King ask the closed beta players for their guilt, but I didn't expect that the final result would be like this."
Diabel spoke as if talking to himself, as if he was confiding in Luo Zhen, and spoke from the bottom of his heart.
"I'm not as good as you."
This short sentence, for some reason, is full of persuasiveness.
In this regard, Luo Zhen was a little surprised.
"You don't have to be so presumptuous, right?" Luo Zhen said with some suspicion: "You do have leadership skills that others don't have, which can be seen from the reaction of those ordinary players and their willingness to follow you." ”
You know, before that, Luo Zhen had praised Diabel for this.
So, Diabel shouldn't say such things, right?
However, Diabel's expression became even more bitter.
"I'm not as good as you."
Diabel just repeats it.
"No matter what, I can't match you."
After saying that, Diabel didn't give Luo Zhen time to react, as if he had recovered again, and let the refreshment and cheerfulness appear on his face again.
"I'll ask for a lot of advice tomorrow, Luo Zhenjun."
Leaving such words, Diabel turned around and left the place.
Looking at Diabel's back, Luo Zhen frowned thoughtfully.
And then...
"Go find Argo."
Luo Zhen made such a decision and took a step forward.
